Beef stew with carrots and potatoes

Overview

Beef has the effects of strengthening muscles and bones, resolving phlegm and calming wind, and quenching thirst and salivation. 100g of beef contains 20.2g of protein and only 2g of fat, which is very suitable for those who want to lose weight and keep fit (I am one). Potatoes are high in protein and contain all the amino acids necessary for the human body. It is also a treasure house of minerals, with various minerals ranging from several to dozens of times that of apples. The nutritional value of 500 grams of potatoes is approximately equivalent to 1,750 grams of apples. The most important thing is that it tastes delicious! Delicious!

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Cut the beef into pieces, put it in a pot under cold water, bring it to a boil, remove the floating bits, wash it with hot water, and pour out the drying water

   

2. 2 Heat oil in a pan. When the oil is hot, add star anise and fry until fragrant. Add onions and ginger and stir-fry until fragrant

   

3. 3 Add beef and stir-fry for a while, then add light soy sauce

   

4. 4 Dark soy sauce (braised soy sauce, for coloring)

   

5. 5 Add hot water to cover the beef. You need to add more water because it will take an hour to stew. Bring to a boil over high heat, then turn to low heat and simmer for 45 minutes

   

6. 6 When stewing beef, prepare potatoes and carrots, cut into hob pieces, soak in water, rinse twice

   

7. 7 In another pot, lightly fry the potatoes and carrots. The nutrients of fried carrots are better absorbed, and potatoes are easier to stew.

   

8. 8 After 45 minutes, add the potatoes and carrots to the beef. By this time, the beef has become soft, but not rotten. Bring to a boil over high heat and simmer for 10 minutes.

   

9. 9 After 10 minutes, add 1 tablespoon of salt, reduce the juice over high heat, and add a little chicken essence or MSG before serving.

   

10. 10 Leave a little juice, serve with rice, and start eating😍😍If you are eating alone, you don’t have to cook too much. This is the amount of three meals for me. If there are many people eating, you can cook more. After all, one dish takes an hour. If you want to cook more, just add a little more salt
